Lever du Soleil

Who doesn’t love a beautiful sunrise? It signifies hope-the beginning of a new day. When I look at the sun rising, I always feel like I have a fresh start; that whatever happened yesterday is a thing of the past.

Grieve for the bitterness of yesterday, but you will eventually have to let it go and move forward. Reminisce the happy moments in your life, but do not hold on to it because like sadness, it doesn’t last either.

So be thankful for yesterday, but since it’s over, leave it there. Focus on making the present better. Focus on your fresh start.  Wherever you are, be grateful for the sunrise. When you see it, remind yourself that you are lucky because God’s giving you another day to live your life.
